ELECTRIC SHOCK. The nation's largest nuclear utility has proposed raising its rates by $600 million next year, then freezing them until 1993 in exchange for concessions from state regulators and consumer groups. Commonwealth Edison said Friday that, after a 30-day period for public comment, its plan will be submitted to the Illinois Commerce Commission for approval. The utility serves about 3 million customers in northern Illinois.
